Thanks for the input, everybody, and Kyler is mostly right. We want to
end up with a 12 volt power source. We think that the cigar lighter
outlet, even though it is mounted in a machine that has a 24 volt
electrical system, is at 12 volts. But it gets those 12 volts by
running the current through a load dropping resister. This makes a
lot of heat, or so the owner tells me, and we wonder if anyone else
has worked around this.

Thanks again for all input.

These marine units only convert from 24V down to 12V. Dan said he was
looking for one that would go the other way, from 12V up to 24V.


Tim was the original poster. He only indicated that he wants 24V to 12V.
